West Greenland Hub - Germanium, Gallium and Other Strategic Minerals Confirmed at West Greenland Hub

Core Insights - Amaroq has confirmed high-grade mineralization of zinc, lead, silver, and newly identified critical minerals (germanium, gallium, cadmium) at the Black Angel mine, fulfilling all conditions for its acquisition [2][6][10] - The West Greenland Hub, which includes the Black Angel mine and Kangerluarsuk exploration licenses, is positioned as a significant development area for Amaroq, enhancing its mineral portfolio and operational capabilities in Greenland [9][10][15] Summary by Sections Highlights - Re-assayed bulk samples from the Black Angel mine show an average of 24.6% zinc, 28.1% lead, and 295 g/t silver, with commercial levels of germanium (44 ppm), gallium (21 ppm), and cadmium (1,328 ppm) identified [6][12] - The results suggest potential commercial concentrate grades of 102 ppm Ge, 48.5 ppm Ga, and 3,040 ppm Cd in future zinc concentrates [6][12] Next Steps - Site reviews at Black Angel have been completed to define upgrade requirements and plan geophysical surveys for the 2026 field season, targeting growth of the current mineral resource of 3.2 million tonnes at 8.8% Zn and 3.0% Pb [6][10] - Initial work will focus on the Deep Ice body, where historical drilling confirmed high grades [6][10] West Greenland Hub - The West Greenland Hub will be 100% owned by Amaroq, separate from the Gardaq joint venture, and will serve as a logistical base for the company's operations [9][10][15] - The Hub is expected to become a new center of mining activity in Greenland, supporting the growing mining and exploration sector [9][10] Black Angel Mine - The Black Angel mine has a historical production of approximately 11.2 million tonnes of ore with high grades of zinc, lead, and silver, making it Greenland's most productive base metal mine of its time [11] - Current estimates indicate significant remaining mineralization, with a focus on leveraging existing infrastructure for a near-term restart of operations [11][12] Kangerluarsuk Project - The Kangerluarsuk project, located 12 km north of Black Angel, presents a promising exploration opportunity with historical high grades of zinc and silver [14] - Amaroq plans to initiate drilling at Kangerluarsuk in 2026 to confirm subsurface mineralization continuity [14]
